I may not have been down with em when they were fresh but they definetly had an influence on me when I discovered them in my young teens. Herbie Hancock - Rockit (1983) Anything by Kraftwerk or Giorgio Moroder (True Legends) and of course Afrika Bambaataa - Planet Rock OMFG!

^^^^Agreed everything above for old school breakbeats.

It was old Josh Wink in the 90s "Higher State..., Laughing Track"

For Trance it was defintely Paul Oakenfold Tranceport and his '99 Essential Mixes.

For house it was Kevin's Nov 2004 Mix that made me a househead for life!


edit: I know this is tracks thread but all the tracks in those mixes I mentioned.

There are times we will remember, there are nights we won't forget.
If we'll value every moment, we will never feel regret.
There are friends who will remain, within out thoughts throughout our lives
There are ties that can't be broken, there are songs that cannot die.
In everything you do,
Your love shines through.

There was a thread on this in the Music Discussion, and I couldn't come up with one specific track that made me fall in love with EDM. I think that it was Oakenfold's EM world tour from '99 and 2000.

Take a look at yourself as an outsider...do you like what you see?

for me there was a bunch.

voodoo people - the prodigy (come to think of it, most of their songs in general)
sandstorm - darude
some songs from daft punk
the launch - dj jean
equador (classic tune. pretty sure i spelt it wrong too.)
children - robert miles.....i remember listening to that on my walkman for hours.

so many, can't really think.
orbital was one of them same with chemical brothers.
basically look at the soundtrack for hackers 1 and 2 and most of the artists there.

then i started listening to PVD, Oakenfold, Corsten, Buuren, Tiesto, etc.

I once busted my dad's speaker playing Prodigy - Breathe and Everything But The Girl - Missing.














ok i lie i busted it while playing the Quad City DJs - Come on ride the train
c'mon ride the Woo woo hey ride it woo woo
Come on ride the train
It's the choo choo ride it woo woo
Come on ride the train it's the choo choo train.

the video was the bomb yo,

Cappella - Move On Baby was the first eurodance tune I heard when I was 8 years old.

As for trance, I believe it was either BT - Mercury & Solace, ATB - 9 PM, or Cygnus X - The Orange Theme.

House...uh...Daft Punk - Around the World, Modjo - Lady...whichever came first.
